What does the upcoming season of The Morning Show uphold?
The Morning Show, which has aired on Apple TV+ since 2019, offers a satirical look into the world of morning news and the lives of its anchors and crew. Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston star as anchors Alex Levy and Bradley Jackson, pivotal figures in the Manhattan-based morning show. The duo also serves as executive producers of the series.
Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Greta Lee, and Karen Pittman constitute the main cast of the show. Alongside Pierre, actors Jeremy Irons and Marion Cotillard join the cast as recurring additions. Irons will appear as Alex Levy’s father, Martin Levy, while Cotillard will portray a “savvy operator from a storied European family.”
Plot details for the fourth season have not been disclosed, but the previous season left viewers on a cliffhanger concerning the future of the UBA network. Alex managed to take down a deal that would have seen billionaire Paul Marks’ tech company acquire the network. Deadline speculates that the upcoming season may explore UBA's potential merger with another company to navigate challenging times.
